Glades Hurricane Debris Pickups Now Completed

MOORE HAVEN, FL. -- Irma made landfall September 10th causing widespread damage to Glades County. The debris company had two local contractors hauling debris since October 2nd (32 days of continuous hauling). They made two sweeps throughout the entire county for debris and vegetative pickup and one pass of C&D or construction debris.

Monitors have reported that green limbs are now being placed on the roadside for pickup and this is not hurricane related debris. Glades County has completed picking up all hurricane related debris as of today.

Please do not place any other debris out for pickup, you will now be responsible for removing and disposing of any yard debris & C&D debris.
